Diabetes Roundtable Inspired by Rihanna

Superstar Rihanna has notched 20 top 10 pop hits in less time than any other musician, and among female solo artists, only Madonna and Mariah Carey claim more No. 1 pop singles, period; Rihanna is tied with Whitney Houston, who also had 11. It’s little wonder that Rihanna has found such consistent success at the top of the charts and has become the most digitally downloaded artist in history.

She’s fashioned herself as a “ glam punk goddess” who likes to play with our notions of what being in command on each new album release including Unapologetic.  "You have to go into your future wanting to make a difference. You have to want to stand out. There are so many doctors, business people... you need to become the best. If you go into it like that, you can never go wrong. Keep your mindset and focus. It's not going to be easy -- there will be hard work no matter what career you choose."

Rihanna inspires this hour long whirlwind of wellness, hosted by by the happy healthcare host, Mr. Divabetic. The exciting mix of diabetes information sprinkled with Rihanna’s songs, interests and relationships aims to help you live your best life.
